MORE THAN JUST A POT

Often pots have a purely functional purpose, but sometimes you just might want them to look good too

If you’re wanting more than just a pott hat that serves its basic purpose, there are lots of options (too many to cover in a short space) and ones that will span a whole range of budgets. Whether it’s for indoor use – herbs, for example – or for fruit and veg outdoors, you can always find something that fits the bill and suits the style of your kitchen, garden or conservatory.

TEAPOT POTS

If you are resourceful and have suitable materials at hand, the most unlikely containers can serve as excellent pots which can look stylish or just plain novel – a great talking point perhaps for when you have visitors next. Take this discarded toilet bowl which now looks far more sanitary as a flower container or this old teapot with its petunia flourish.
